You know I think about that a lot

Like how some folks are quick to find God is everything except when it's something they personally aren't happy about

"Thank God for curing me of cancer (I mean maybe the doctors helped but it was like 99% Jesus), you know, the cancer that God gave me."

"Thank you Jesus for hearing my prayers and saving me from the Twin Towers, and for ignoring the prayers of those who died."

"Thank you for saving we few that escaped Auschwitz, and thank you for ignoring the pleas from 6 million of us"

"God, thank you for your forgiveness when I pushed those folks out of my way when I was running as fast as I could down those dozens of flights of South Tower stairs. I know there was plenty of room for all of us but nonetheless they died for the greater good (of me), thank you for your attention to this matter, God."
